Review in Cureus, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

The rapid evolution of generative artificial intelligence (AI) has introduced transformative technologies across various domains, with text-to-video (T2V) generation models emerging as transformative innovations in the field. This narrative review explores the potential of T2V AI generation models used in healthcare, focusing on their applications, challenges, and future directions. Advanced T2V platforms, such as Sora Turbo (OpenAI, Inc., San Francisco, California, United States) and Veo 2 (Google LLC, Mountain View, California, United States), both announced in December 2024, offer the capability to generate high-fidelity video contents. Such models could revolutionize healthcare by providing tailored videos for patient education, enhancing medical training, and possibly optimizing telemedicine. We conducted a comprehensive narrative literature search of databases including PubMed and Google Scholar, and identified 41 relevant studies published between 2020 and 2024. Our findings reveal significant possible benefits in improving patient education, standardizing customized medical training, and enhancing remote medical consultations. However, critical challenges persist, including risks of misinformation (or deepfake), privacy breaches, ethical concerns, and limitations in video authenticity. Detection mechanisms for deepfakes and regulatory frameworks remain underdeveloped, necessitating further interdisciplinary research and vigilant policy development. Future advancements in T2V AI generation models could enable real-time healthcare visualizations and augmented reality training. However, achieving these benefits will require addressing accessibility challenges to ensure equitable implementation and prevent potential disparities. By addressing these challenges and fostering collaboration among stakeholders, healthcare systems and AI technologists, T2V AI generation models could transform global healthcare into a more effective, universal, and innovative system while safeguarding against its potential misuse.
